Problem with array

I have this on my code:

var mixture = ["Hola", "Otro", "Luis", 1, 2, true]; var guides = new array(42);

But i have a problem because the console say me: " It looks like Task 1 is no longer passing." I don't understand why.

Anyone knows why show me that error?

try:

var mixture = ["Hola", "Otro", "Luis", 1, 2, true];
var guides = new Array(42);

You were probably getting a reference error from using array() instead of Array(). Case sensitivity...

And now, in the form of an actual answer...

try:

var mixture = ["Hola", "Otro", "Luis", 1, 2, true];
var guides = new Array(42);

Yes Aaron you are right! The case sensitive was the problem! Thanks :)

I have had the same problem. Make sure you don't combine the next challenge with the previous one. I'm not quite sure what your challenge is, but make sure you start fresh with every challenge, unless told otherwise. Good luck!
